Film | Remarkable Film Based on the True Love Story


Bau: Artist at War is a remarkable film based on the true love story of Joseph and Rebecca Bau, whose wedding took place in the Plaszow concentration camp during WWII, an event immortalized in Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List. Using his artistic skills and sense of humor in the camps, Joseph manages to stay alive and ultimately helps hundreds to escape. Years later, when called to be a key witness in the trial of the brutal Nazi officer who tortured him and killed his father, he is thrust back into vivid memories of the Holocaust. Emile Hirsch stars as Joseph Bau. The screening will be followed by a conversation with writer/producer Deborah Smerecnik, Director Sean McNamara, and Joseph Bau's daughters Clila and Hadasa Bau, moderated by Daniel S. Mariaschin.

Film | This Story Won Best Documentary at the Santa Barbara Jewish Film Festival in 2024


Here Lived: The Stolpersteine Story won Best Documentary at the Santa Barbara Jewish Film Festival in 2024 and has been screened at many festivals around the world. When conceptual artist Gunter Demnig first conceived the idea of laying Stolpersteine (literal translation: stumbling stones) for Roma, Sinti, and disabled victims of National Socialism (Nazis) in his native Germany, he never imagined his project would grow to become the world's largest decentralized memorial. The Stolpersteine he crafted are, in theory, quite simple: concrete blocks measuring 10x10cm, topped with polished brass plates that are hand stamped with the names and fates of victims of Hitler's reign of terror. These handmade stones are laid into the pavement in front of the last voluntarily chosen residence of those murdered by the Nazis. The stones, requested by surviving family members, represent a deeply personal commemoration to those affected by the horrors of Nazi occupation. Today, Stolpersteine have been placed in 30 countries across Europe, and on May 23, 2023, 3 Generations filmed Gunter Demnig laying the 100,000th Stolperstein. Against the backdrop of a war in Europe, the perpetual plague of anti-Semitism and racism around the world, and the upcoming 80th anniversary of the Nazi's defeat, this extraordinary tale of resilience, remembrance, and community deeply resonates with our contemporary moment. Here Lived is a timely and profoundly moving testament to the enduring power of human compassion and solidarity. The screening will be introduced by Netherlands Ambassador to the United Nations Lise Gregoire-van Haaren and followed by a panel discussion with producer and director Jane Wells, historian Emile Schrijver, and producer Ulrika Citron.
